I have tried almost any MUA out there (OK, I skipped IncrediMail! ;-), I
still have some to test (Gnus, ...) and this is my personal top five *at
the moment*:
1) The Bat! 1.6c:
Does more than most people would ever need in a MUA.
2) Sylpheed
IMO the best graphical mailer for Unix-based systems (no, I don't
consider mutt or pine to have graphical interfaces).
3) Mozilla
Promising. It seems it could become my recommendation for a free
MUA (on Windows) one day.
4) mutt
I use it at my university. Nice to have for checking mail via SSH.
Nice list of features, highly configurable (although I must admit
that I only use a very small subset of its features).
5) Outlook
Good PIM solution. Evolution 1.03 comes close, but Outlook
nevertheless is a good piece of software. Unfortunately,
it is a popular target for virii because it is really widespread.
Sometimes, in my weaker moments, I wish there was a version of Sylpheed
for Windows (I know there is one, but I don't really like it).
Especially over the last few weeks, when a lot of new functions have
been added to TB while old bugs were still present.
